Subject Administrator

Salary- £28,063 - £30,185 per annum

This is a full time, fixed term position for up to 24 months.

Internal applicants welcome as a secondment opportunity.

There is an exciting opportunity to join the administration team as a Subject Administrator, based at our Clifton campus with flexible office and remote home working.

Please note that this is not a remote working role. The current expectation is that you will work at least 60% of your time per week on Clifton campus in Nottingham, UK.

Subject Administrators provide subject and student related administrative and clerical support to designated subject area(s) within the School acting as point of focus for academic staff, administrative staff and students associated with these subject areas.

Working within a busy administration team, you will be involved in all aspects of subject administration including, but not limited to, dealing with student enquiries, maintenance of student records, production and organisation of exam papers, quality assurance and Boards of Examiners.

You will be involved in working with students and staff both from within the School and across the University. There will also be a requirement to interface with colleagues of varying levels of seniority within the University. Strong customer focus, influencing and negotiating skills are therefore essential.

An ability to prioritise your workload and to be effective in changing situations is key; you will be able to operate using your own initiative and professional judgement, and will possess the skills to multitask and complete tasks promptly and accurately. You will be an excellent team player with the proven ability to work well under pressure.

You will have demonstrable experience of taking formal business / quality assurance meeting minutes and of using Microsoft Office applications, in particular SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, Word and Excel.

For more details, please take a look at the role profile. We'll still consider applications even if you don't meet every single one of the requirements, so don't be put off if you don't match them perfectly.
